    Guided small group cycling tour Amalfi Coast & Cilento Cycling the Coast of the Sirens Enjoy the best of southern Italy: from the unknown Cilento to the dramatic Amalfi Coast TRIP NOTES 2020 © Genius Loci Travel. All rights reserved. [email protected] | www.genius-loci.it ***GENIUS LOCI TRAVEL - The Real Spirit Of Italy*** Guided small group cycling tour INTRODUZIONE The regions of Amalfi and the Cilento have been known as a paradise on earth since ancient times. The Greeks built some of their most impressive temples here and under the Romans they formed part of ‘Campania Felix’, or the Happy Land. When travelling here, one easily becomes overwhelmed by the well-known cultural and natural attractions of the famous ‘Costiera Amalfitana’ with its towering cliffs and picturesque coves. However, the Cilento region south of Salerno, now one of Italy’s biggest National Parks, where the coastline bulges out into an expanse of mountainous landmass, is also well worth a visit. This tour gives you the opportunity to discover both the busy, touristy Amalfi and the quiet, peaceful Cilento. Here in the Cilento National Park you pass through world-famous cultural sites that are UNESCO World Heritage listed, such as Velia and Paestum, and visit some of the nicest medieval villages in the area, both along the coast and slightly inland, where the traditional way of life is still evident. All these attractions are connected by great well-paved and quiet roads, ideal for cycling. Of course there will also be plenty of time to enjoy the splendid beaches and wonderful food on offer.

All rights reserved. booking@genius -loci.it | www.genius -loci.it *** GENIUS LOCI TRAVEL - The Real Spirit Of Italy *** Guided small group adventure INTRODUCTION The region of Campania marks the real starting point of southern Italy. It has been sought after since Roman times when it was labelled the Campania Felix, or ‘happy land’, hardly a surprise considering the fact that it includes the great city of Naples, beautiful countryside, Roman ruins, small islands and stretches of spectacular coast. On the southern side of the Sorrento Peninsula, the Costiera Amalfitana is probably one of Europe’s most well-known and dramatic stretches of coastline, with its towering cliffs and picturesque coves. But Campania’s real secret is located south of Salerno, and immediately south of the wonderful Greek temples of Paestum. Here the coastline bulges out into an expanse of mountainous landmass known as the Cilento, now a National Park with World Heritage listing. The Cilento coast is fairly rocky territory, with the crystalline sea lapping at the shore. There is a wild kind of beauty here; rocky ridges set between small picturesque inlets and richly scented pinewoods backing onto wide sandy beaches. Aleppo pines loom over the multicoloured undergrowth of myrtle and cactuses; whilst huge, centuries- old olive trees grow right down to the shore. Inland the Cilento is largely undisturbed by the 21st century and you enjoy visiting medieval and quaint fishing villages where the traditional way of life is still evident.

Fitzgerald, SMSgt, U.S. Air Force (retired) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12th Air Force, 57th Bombardment Wing 321st Bombardment Group History: September 1943 The following is a compilation of the 321st Bomb Group’s Headquarters and individual Squadron War Diaries. They have been transcribed word for word, from the Squadron Histories provided by the Air Force Historical Research Agency (AFHRA), Maxwell Air Force Base Alabama. At the end of each Squadron’s daily entry, the individuals cited in the entry are identified by full name, rank and duty, in alphabetical order. The day’s entry begins with the Tactical Operations Statement, from the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) Chronology, for the Mediterranean Theater of Operations (MTO). The history also includes mission reports, mission crew rosters, Missing Air Crew Reports (MACR), personal mission logs, journals, and diaries made available by various sources. Invitation Anyone who has documentation pertaining to the 321st Bomb Group or its members, and would like to have it included in this history, is welcome to participate. Copies of: photos (official or personal); orders (promotion, decoration, travel, etc.); Mission Reports; Missing Air Crew Reports; personal diaries, logs, journals, etc; other documentation; or information that will help identify hi-lited individuals will be greatly appreciated, as one of my goals is to correctly identify every man and plane assigned to the 321st Bomb Group. My only interest in this project is to honor those who served by perpetuating their story, and making it available for future generations, particularly the families and friends of our Great Heroes.

    HESPERIA 70 (200I) MAG N A AC H A E A Pages373-46° AKHAIANLATE GEOMETRIC ANDARCHAIC POTTERY IN SOUTHITALY AND SICILY In memoryofEmilyToionsend ABSTRACT Vermeule ImportedAkhaian and locallyproduced Akhaian-style pottery occurs in SouthItaly, Sicily, and beyond, found not only in the Akhaianapoikiai, but also in other settlements.The most characteristicAkhaian shape the kantharos is discussedwithinthe contextof its homeregion, including Elis. Examplesof ArchaicAkhaian pottery in theWest are assembled and the dis- tributionis comparedto thatof Akhaianand West Greek imports in the Late BronzeAge. A patternemerges that suggests a complexreality of interaction andmovement of people,commodities, and ideas between Greece and Italy in the pre- and protohistoricperiods, thus contributingto a betterunder- standingof the firstwestern Greeks. AIMSAND SCOPE OF THE STUDY Thispaper emerged from a studyof thepottery from the site at Francavilla Marittima,the extramuralsanctuary of theAkhaian apoikia of Sybarison the siteof an earlierindigenous settlement (Fig. 1).1 In dealingwith the potteryfrom the sanctuaryon the Timponedella Motta (see below),I discovereda largenumber of plainbanded and monochrome kantharoi, manyof whichwere locally produced, either in the plainof Sybarisor elsewherein SouthItaly, while others were imported. These are not iso- latedexamples, but together form one of themost numerous categories of potteryafter Corinthian. In shapeand style, these kantharoi are closest to a seriesof vesselsfrom various sites in the northwestPeloponnese, par- ticularlyAkhaia. Despite the factthat Sybaris was traditionally founded by Akhaians,the Peloponnesiancharacter of thismaterial has not previ- ouslybeen recognized in studiesof Greekpottery in SouthItaly and Sic- ily.The relevantmaterial from Francavilla will be fullypublished else- where.Comparative material from other sites in SouthItaly and Sicily formsthe basisof this article,the aimof whichis to track,as faras is 1.

  • Guido Moggi & Vincenzo La Valva the Flora of Cilento (Salerno): Its
    Guido Moggi & Vincenzo La Valva The flora of Cilento (Salerno): its past, present and future Abstract Moggi, G., & La Valva, V: The flora of Cilento (Salerno): its past, present and future. - Bocconea 16(1): 261-268. 2003. - ISSN 1120-4060. The area known as 'Cilento' is located in southern Italy, south of Salerno, on the west (Tyrrhenian) coast of the peninsula. Knowledge of its flora has always been very scanty. A review on the available knowledge from the first studi es by Tenore (about 1810-1840) up to the year 2000 has shown how the information has changed during two centuries and what can be its future developments. ln particular, it is worth mentioning that at the time when Tenore pub­ lished his researches, the number of vascular plant species Ii sted for the Ci lento was 444, whereas Lacaita, in a catalogue published in 1921 , recorded for this area 934 different species. To date the number of spontaneous (or naturalized) vascular plant species mentioned for the Cilento is 1940, with the assumption that this figure is going to increase in the near future fol­ lowing the floristic research presently carri ed out in the area.However, it is remarkable how 91 species among those mentioned by Tenore have no longer been found since 1850; it is reason­ able to think that many of these are actually vanished, since typical of areas (such as sandy coastal dunes, humid areas) heav ily modified by the human impact during the past 100 years.The study of the Cilento flora deserves, with no doubt, an adequate investigation, since this area, because of its typical geographical position and its litological and geomorphological variety, served as a hinge in the diffusion of species between the north and the south of ltaly, and between Italy and the Balcan peninsula.
